Question

can someone please help me write at least 2-4 sentences to create a real-world math problem for the equation and then solve the equation.

Equation : 5x = 3x + 20.

EQ: How can I create and solve equations using real-world scenarios?

Answer 1

Answer:

Bill is given 5 bags of marbles, and joe is given 3 bags of marbles. Joe needs 20 more marbles to have the same number of marbles as Bill. How many marbles are in each bag?

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Our missing variable would be x, and so we can use an object that is unknown to represent x.
2. First let's solve the equation.
3. Subtract 3x from both sides.
4. Now we have 2x = 20.
5. Divide by 2 on both sides.
6. x = 10.

If I am incorrect in my reasoning, please let me know so that I can plan better for my future answers. Have an amazing day.
